Import Customer Addressbook

If you’re switching to IndusTrack and have a list of customers from your old system, you can import them easily using an Excel file. Just follow the steps below.

Before You Start

Make sure your data is clean and follows these rules:

✅ Use the Customer Addressbook Import Template
✅ Include all required columns (see below)
No duplicate rows – they will be imported as separate customers
✅ Only 2 contact numbers are supported: Phone and Mobile
No column headers – remove them before importing, or the system will treat them as customer data
✅ Check for bad data in the file i.e. multiple contact numbers in the Phone column, Multiple names. Importing files in the system with Bad Data will lead to an unsuccessful import.
✅ After importing Addressbook successfully, please make sure to validate all customer’s addresses.

⚠️ If the autoincrement setting is ON, the Customer Number will be automatically assigned by the system. It will ignore any Customer Number you included in your file.

Required Columns

Use the Customer Addressbook Import Template and include these fields:

Note that columns with (asterisk) * are required.

  • Customer ID* – Must be unique for each customer. Used to link other data (equipment, jobs, service locations, etc.) to this customer.
  • Customer Number – Optional. Shown in the Customer module. If autoincrement is ON, this will be overwritten.
  • Customer Name* – Enter company name or full name (for residential customers).
  • Contact First Name *
  • Contact Last Name*
  • Phone
  • Email
  • Street*
  • City*
  • State*
  • ZIP*
  • Site Notes
  • Office Notes
